Let’s Talk About Touching Workbook: A Body Safety Book For Kids
What’s Okay and What’s Not
A Safety Book for Kids Ages 5–12

Help children build confidence, set boundaries, and stay safe with this gentle, read-aloud body safety guide. Remember, the goal is to empower, engage and educate, not to scare.

In Let’s Talk About Touching, kids will learn the difference between safe and unsafe touch, how to recognize tricky behavior, and when and how to say “NO.” Through easy-to-understand language and diverse, inclusive illustrations, this empowering book teaches children:

✔️ What safe and unsafe touch looks and feels like
✔️ How to protect their private parts
✔️ How to recognize unsafe adults and unsafe secrets
✔️ What to do if something feels wrong
✔️ That their body belongs to them and they have the right to speak up

Written with care and compassion, this book is perfect for parents, teachers, counselors, and caregivers who want to teach body autonomy and safety in an age-appropriate way.

Guiding Principles for the Book

Empower, don’t alarm.

• Use language that builds confidence: “You are strong. You are brave. You can say no.”

Normalize the conversation.

• Just like brushing teeth or crossing the street, body safety is everyday learning.

Bridge the gap parents often miss.

• Parents may avoid the topic of body safety but allow kids access to social media where risks are real. Your book becomes a tool to start the conversation early, in a safe way.

Promote awareness, not fear.

• Instead of focusing on “bad people,” the book focuses on children’s right to safety and their ability to recognize what feels wrong.

•About 90% of abuse perpetrators are known and trusted by the victim commonly family members, friends, or caregivers.

•Roughly 30–38% of abusers are close relatives, while about 50–60% are acquaintances; only about 10% are strangers.

#SafetyHeroCampaign

"This book was created to help families talk openly about body safety. Too often, children are left to figure out boundaries alone, especially online. By giving kids the language to understand what’s okay and what’s not, we protect them, empower them, and raise a generation that is confident, safe, and respected. This is not about fear it’s about awareness, love, and strength."
